Music theory analyzes the pitch, timing, and structure of music. It uses mathematics to study elements of music such as tempo, chord progression, form, and meter. The attempt to structure and communicate new ways of composing and hearing music has led to musical applications of set theory, abstract algebra and number theory.
One of Euler's more unusual interests was the application of mathematical ideas in music. In 1739 he wrote the Tentamen novae theoriae musicae, hoping to eventually integrate music theory as part of mathematics. This part of his work, however did not receive wide attention and was once described as too mathematical for musicians and too musical ...
With a focus on the classroom practice of arts integration, a nonprofit called Arts Integration Solutions (formerly the Opening Minds through the Arts Foundation) provides professional development for teachers and program planning and implementation for schools and school districts. AiS has developed a set of tenets that are the basis for arts ...
The Oxford Companion to Music describes three interrelated uses of the term "music theory": The first is the "rudiments", that are needed to understand music notation (key signatures, time signatures, and rhythmic notation); the second is learning scholars' views on music from antiquity to the present; the third is a sub-topic of musicology ...
When that video raked up hundreds of thousands of views in a matter of days, it inspired him to reimagine other ways to teach math, including using the tune to Swift's "Anti-Hero" to help students ...

Looking out the window from his office in Boulder, Sanders said he wanted to establish a legacy that would merit chiseling his face into the mountains there like the presidents at Mount Rushmore.
Godfried Toussaint (1944–2019) was a Belgian–Canadian computer scientist who worked as a professor of computer science for McGill University and New York University.His main professional expertise was in computational geometry, [2] but he was also a jazz drummer, [3] held a long-term interest in the mathematics of music and musical rhythm, and since 2005 held an affiliation as a researcher ...
